Manchester, UK based lighting rental company dbn supplied a lighting design and equipment for the Opening Ceremony of the 2011 Commonwealth Youth Games stage in The Bowl Stadium, Douglas, Isle of Man.
dbn's Nick Buckley designed a lighting scheme for the show which was produced by Walk The Plank, a regular dbn arts-based client renowned for their innovative and entertaining large scale shows.
Walk The Plank's 30-minute theatrical element of the two hour long Opening Ceremony show - which also featured the Athletes Parade - was divided into three dance-orientated sections.
An intro spectacular was followed by a tribute to the Isle of Man's culture including the Sea God Manannan and the Viking raids before an international dance finale, which featured a fusion of different styles from around the Commonwealth.
